What was the taxi charges? Ghulmit to Karimabad, and Karimabad to Lake?

We left our bikes and luggage at the Rakaposhi View point hotel in Gulmitnagar...

The fair for taxi from Gulmitnagar to Attabad was ~2000/- don't remember the exact amount... since it was the only taxi available that day because of the holiday (Prince Karim's birthday...) and you know mostly the Hunza valley people are Agha Khanis...

And where the taxi dropped us from there we hiked to the lake and a got help from a 4x4 as well...

Keep a scarf with you, which you can dip in the water and then fold it around your head and neck.

The reason behind this is that you are traveling at pretty high altitude and these areas are high altitude deserts. So, naturally the sun is more closer to you and there are more chances of your skin getting burned from the sun...

So, covering your body protects it from burning and scarf dipped in cold water keeps your temperature down hence making you relax and enjoy the beauty...
